Racquet Sports Tip Of The Month
MINDFULNESS OF SERVING - Whether you are an avid pickleball player or tennis player, the serve is one of the most important shots in the game. The serve not only starts the point, but it sets you up for success after hitting one shot. This is the time to slow down, relax, focus on your serve location. Like a pitcher in baseball, you want to keep you opponents (returner) on their heels not knowing where you are serving to. Mixing up your serve location and varying different speeds and spin on the serve are crucial to giving your team the best chance to win that individual point. This is the one shot that you can practice on your own to develop further, giving you more confidence and consistency when playing next. Use a target to give yourself a great visual when practicing your serve. Till next time focus on mixing it up!
